About this property

Amazing Mt. Hood and Valley Views at Ziphaus!

This newer home is five minutes from downtown Hood River. Located in the hills above Eastside Drive, ZipHaus has panoramic views of Mt. Hood and the orchards of the Hood River Valley. Enjoy gorgeous sunsets or relax to birdsong on our front deck. You’ll love being close to all the action Hood River has to offer, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet.

ZipHaus has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, with the master suite on the main floor. The master has incredible views of the valley and Mt. Hood, a king bed, walk-in closet and a private full bath. The upstairs has two bedrooms (one king, one queen), two twin beds tucked into the wall of the TV room (which has a 55" flat screen, Dish and Roku), and another full bath. There's a half bath on the main floor off the laundry room. There's also a Pak N' Play and a booster style high chair for littler guests.

The kitchen is roomy and open to the dining and living rooms. It has plenty of storage and a large island with seating for four. The dining room seats six with room to spare and has fantastic views of Mt. Hood and the Valley. The living room features a gas fireplace, a 55" flat screen television, and double glass doors to the front deck. There's WiFi throughout the house. A gas grill on the back patio is available for your use, and the front deck is a relaxing place to enjoy the views with a cup of coffee or a glass of local beer or wine.

Hood River is an outdoor sporting mecca – bicycling, wind surfing, hiking, skiing, kayaking, SUP and just about any other snow or water sport you can think of! Our garage is perfect for storing all of your outdoor gear.

Located just five minutes off I-84, ZipHaus has easy access to the Fruit Loop, Mosier Twin Tunnels, the Whoopdee Trail for hiking and mountain biking, and great cycling routes right out the front door. The Hood River Chamber of Commerce has fantastic links to the many, MANY fun things to see and do in Hood River. (http://hoodriver.org/travelers-guide/things-to-do)

In the winter, you're just 30-40 minutes from world class downhill skiing at Mt. Hood Meadows, miles of cross-country skiing at Teacup Lake and Cooper Spur Mountain (along with some easy downhill runs), sledding at Little Jon and White River Sno Parks, and miles and miles of snowshoeing.

The house was perfect for us. Plenty of room for 8 of us and the view of Mt. Hood is amazing! The host answered all my questions promptly and even recommended several bicycle rides which I took advantage of. Couldn't have been better.

We stayed at this beautiful home for my son’s wedding, and it was absolutely perfect in every way. The views were breathtaking from sunrise to sunset — truly the kind that make you stop and take it all in. The house itself was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed to feel right at home during such a special weekend. The host went above and beyond to make sure our stay was seamless and memorable. I can’t recommend this place enough — it made an already special occasion even more unforgettable!

Gorgeous property with incredible views of Mt Hood from many windows inside the home. Outside the front deck is a fantastic place to sit and visit in a quiet setting. It's also a great place to watch the sunsets and stargaze at night! Everything in the home is immaculate with all the necessities! Highly recommend this place! We stayed for a family wedding and it was perfect! Quiet and out of town but close enough to not be too far away. Outstanding!!!! Definitely a 10 out of 10!

Great views and a lovely clean home.

The house is spacious enough for three couples or a larger family. The home is new and well kept. Diane the owner is wonderful to work with. Thank you for helping us on an earlier check in time to get us dressed and set to go to our sons rehearsal dinner that we were in charge of at a nearby Hood River winery! We have many family members who can’t wait to visit Hood River again and rent your home!! Thank you!

Wonderful time at the Zip House

This is a great place to stay while in Hood River. Convenient to the city and the river but nicely out of the way and quiet. We had a wonder stay. Plenty of room for 4 adults. Good kitchen if you like to cook. Plenty of outside spaces to enjoy.

Lovely home close to skiing and Hood River

We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful house! My husband really loved cooking in the gorgeous and well-provisioned kitchen and we all enjoyed the giant windows with the lovely surroundings. It was super convenient for skiing and snow tubing at Mount Hood and a short hop to Hood River with the art galleries, stores and great restaurants. Thank you so much for making this a wonderful holiday visit!

About the host

Host profile image
We spend as much time as we can in Hood River!

Why they chose this property

We bought this property in 2008. We'd looked up and down the Hood River Valley for over a year for a property that spoke to us, and fell in love with the view from Old Dalles Drive immediately. We were finally able to build in 2015 and absolutely love ZipHaus! It's amazing to sit on the front deck and just...be. You can see the planes landing at the airport on the west side of the valley, watch all kinds of birds winging by (including a flock of wild turkeys, though they mostly trot around the orchards), and watch Mt. Hood as the sun crosses overhead and eventually sets behind the hills of the Cascades. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
